:confused: My son advised me he has a knot/lump on top of foot near ankle. It is hard but does not hurt, what do you think it could be... he does not live with me and told me this over the phone...

There may be some information on the following site that may be of help to you. I hope that it is. There can be many reasons lumps or knots develop on feet. I have bumps/lumps on my feet. But, I think that it is because I eat so much food that has calcium in it. Also, my bumps/lumps are near to my big toes. Your sons problem could also just be a benign cyst.

Well, I appreciate your advice. I sent my son the information and sure hope that a cyst is what it is... I have a similar one on my wrist but never gave it a thought until I look it up from your information, many thanks...
